1. LET NATURE LEND A DECORATIVE HAND. An easy way to start a centrepiece is to collect natural elements that are in season. Budding flowers, branches and leaves all work nicely. For this summer inspired version Amanda combined bare branches with glass bottles for a light, airy look.

2. HANGING CENTREPIECES DON’T JUST CREATE A WONDERFUL AMBIENCE, they’re also a good space saver for small tables too. Amanda’s take combines a bouquet of greenery with hanging lights, but paper decorations or fabric could work here too. Just be sure to hang it high enough so diners can see each other across the table.

3. OF COURSE TO UP THE CELEBRATION FEEL, sometimes you need a little height. For this champagne tower inspired centrepiece Amanda recommends working with one colour palette and building a symmetrical shape. Happy celebrating!
